`Enteric-Coated Essential Fatty Acids from Cold Water Fish - Cholesteroi/PCB Free
`

`
`Omega Pure 300 EC™ is a molecularly distilled, pure, natural fish oil (triglyceride) providing 300 mg of omega-3 essential
`
`fatty acids per softgel. Due to the variation of EPA and DHA content among catches of fish, the amounts of these fatty
`
`acids in the oil may vary slightly. Mixed tocopherols are present to maximize freshness. •
`
`Supportive, but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the
`
`risk of coronary heart disease!
`
`Available in 90 softgels and 270 softgels

`ᄋᄋセセMMセABGQQ@Although we tend to think of fat as a " b ad" thing,
`there are "good" fats that our body needs In order to
`function properly . In fact, wo can't live without them.
`
`Essential fatty acids (EFAs) are in that good fat group.
`Our body requires them In order to perform a number of
`different biological processes. EFAs must be ingested
`because the body does not manufacture them itself.

`
`When EFAs were first discovered to be essential nutrients
`in 1923, they were called 'vitamin F'. However, by the
`early 1930s. they were accurately reclassified as fats. In
`recent years. awareness of the many health benefits of EF As • particularly the omega-3
`fatty acids • has increased dramatically.

`
`This Increased Interest In omega-3s was triggered In part by three Danish scientists. who
`noticed that th e Inuit (Eskimo) people of Greenland consumed large amounts of fat from
`seafood but had almost no cardiovascular disease. In a 1975 study, these researchers
`compared the blood plasma of the Greenland Inuits wah that of Inui ts living in Denmark and
`non-Inuit Danish residents. They found that the blood of the Greenland Inuits contained a
`remarkably higher amount of certain long-chain fatty acids · the omega-3s now known as
`EPA and DHA.(1)

`
`acid (best known as omega-6 fatty acids). Both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are
`important for good health. However. as with everything in nature. maintaining the proper
`balance is key.
`
`Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to reduce Inflammation, lower the risk of heart
`disease and stroke, promote bone health and Improve the symptoms of arthritis. Ongoing
`research suggests omega-3s may also be beneficial for many other conditions such as
`ADHD. Alzheimer's disease, inflammatory bowel disease and depression.
`
`Omega-6 fatty acids play a role In helping to lower cholesterol and supporting skin health.
`Another Important function of omega·6s is to make our blood "sticky" so it's able to clot and
`we 、ッョセ@bleed to death. But when the omega-6s are not balanced with enough omega-3s.
`the blood can get too sticky. When the blood clots form too easily, they can lead to a heart
`attack or stroke.
`
`Experts say th e Ideal ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 Is roughly 1:4 (1 part omega-6s to 4
`parts omega-3s). Unfortunately, the typical American d iet is heavily weighted In the wrong
`direction, with a ratio of about 20:1 (20 parts omega·6s to 1 part omega-3s).
`
`Therefore. supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids becomes even more important.
`
`Sources of Omega-3s
`
`Although omega-3 fatty acids are necessary for health, the human body can't make them.
`The only way to get them is through food and/or supplements. Food sources of omega-3s
`include walnuts, flaxseed, soybeans and cold-water fish such as salmon, tuna and halibut.
`
`Ideally, eating plenty of fish should provide you with the omega-3s you need. However,
`because so much of the fish today is contaminated with industrial pollutants and toxins like
`PCBs, mercury and other heavy metals, it can be dangerous to consume a lot of fish.
`
`T herefore, in order to get the quantity of omega-3s our bodies require, most of us n eed to
`supplement our diets. While fish oil or flaxseed oil supplements can be good sources. krill
`oil is considered by many to be the vory best source of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and
`DHA.
`
`Differe nces Bet ween Krill Oil and Fish 0 11
`
`Krill arc tiny shrimp-like crustaceans that pack a big punch of nutrients. They are one of the
`most abundant sou rces of seafood omcga-3s. There are a number of important differences
`between Arctic Select Krill Oil•u and fish oil:
`
`• Blo avallablllty - The omega-3s in krill oil are in phospholipid form, while the
`omega-3s In fish oil are in triglyceride form. As phospholipids, krill omega-3s
`can be absorbed into the bloodstream without the need to be first broken
`down by the digestive process. making thom more bioavailable for cell
`functioning and growth.
`
`• Antioxidants - Arctic Solcct Krill Oil contains much higher levels of the
`naturally occurring antioxidant astaxanthln than fish oil. Antioxidants protect

`
`Top Ten Things Caregivers
`Don't Want to Hear ..• And Some
`They Dot (moroj
`
`• Purity - The krill used In Arclic Select Krill Oil are pure and free of toxins
`because they are only harvested In the pristine waters of the Antarctic, far
`from any industrial pollutants. Fish oil supplements are only as pure as the
`fish they came from. If the fish were harvested from polluted waters, the fish
`oils will likely contain the same toxins.
`
`• Stability - Two factors make krill oil more stable and resistant to rancldily
`than most fish oils. (1) Omega·J fatty acids in the form of phospholipids are
`far l ess prone to oxidation than omcga·Js in triglyceride form. (2) The
`antioxidant astaxanlhin provides added protection to the omega-Js.
`prolonging their shelf life.
`
`• Aftertaste - A common side effect of taking fish oils Is reflux or belching,
`which resullS in a fishy aftertaste. Arctic Select Krill Oil leaves no fishy
`aftertaste.
`
`While both fish oil and krill oil are good. when il comes to providing omega-Js In lhelr most
`u seable form. krill oil Is far superior.
`
`Health Benefits of Krill Oil
`
`Since 1980, more than 60,000 studies have been conducted examining the health benefits
`of omega-3 fatty acids.
`
`Cholesterol
`A 2004 study measured tho effects of krill oil, fish oil and a placebo on total cholesterol,
`LDL (bad cholesterol), HDL (good cholesterol) and triglycerides for 120 people after 90
`days. As you can see from the table below. krill oil was significantly better than fish oil at
`lowering total cholesterol, LDL and triglycerides, while also raising the desirable HDL.

`In a meta-analysis or 17 controlled clinical trials. scientists found that supplementing the
`diet with 3 g or more of fish ッセ@per day "can lead l o clinically relevant BP reductions in
`individuals with untreated hypertension."(3)
`
`Inflammation ·Arthritis and Cardiovascular Disease
`A 2007 study evaluated the effect of krill oil on 90 patients with inflammatory conditions •
`cardiovascular disease and/or active rheumatoid arthritis and/or osteoarthritis. All were
`required to stop taking anti-Inflammatory drugs starting one week before tho study started.
`Since inflammation is closely linked l o the dovelopment of both atherosclerosis and joint
`disease, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were measured throughout the study. (CRP is one
`of the most useful biomarkers of Inflammation and appears to be a central player In the
`harmful effects of systemic inflammation.)
`
`The following chart shows the changes In CRP levels during tho 30-day study period. CRP
`levels declined in the krill oil group even though they had stopped taking anti-inflammatory
`mads, while they Increased l or the placebo group.

`Several studies suggestthal omega-3s may enhance calcium absorption, reduce excretion

`
`The Revolutionary "Good Fat" That Promotes Heart, Brain, Bone and Joint Health
`
`Page 5 of 7
`
`Omega-3 phospholipids play an Important role In the structure and function of brain cell
`membranes and cell signaling. Tho omega-3 fatty acid DHA Is the most common fatty acid
`found In the brain and is thought lo be valuable In maintaining mCmOfY and cognitive
`functioning abilities, which can become impaired as we age.(G) Dementia patients have
`shown decreased levels of DHA in their brain tissue.
`
`Since omega-3 phosphoUpids have been shown to be more efficiently taken up by brain
`tissue than omega-3 triglycerides, Arctic Select Krill Oil Is an excellent source of the omega
`-3s needed for maintaining brain health.
